I was gonna pick up Person 4 but i realised that i had already watched two dudes play about ten hours of it already, so i decided to get Persona 3 which is really awesome, it's really cool how each game is similar in some spots but very different in others.

I don't think I'm missing out on much by just watching you guys play Persona.  Sure I could press x at my own pace and be playing football, in the band and chasing Yukiko instead of Chie, but how different could that be?  And yes I do have an excuse; there's no price cut in the UK and I'm in debt.

Wow, you could just visit youtube and save yourself money from buying any game. It might be more enjoyable if the other guy's playing it better too, since you won't get frustrated from losing :>

Not any game, Alex.  Most games involve a lot more interaction than Persona 4.  I'm really enjoying the endurance run, and I expect I'd really enjoy playing it.  But there's not much point in spending more than £100 on something I'm essentialy experiencing already for free.  I hope the publishers of Persona don't read that :-(

I'm really on the edge of buying a PS2 now simply because I want to play Persona 4 after watching you guys play it.

I think that if the Endurance Run somehow prevents someone from buying Persona 4, they were never actually interested in Persona 4 in the first place.

You miss a hell of a lot of game by only watching. Hell, I'm still missing out on a lot of the game's content in my first playthrough. I'm going to need to play through it at least one more time to get the full experience that the game provides.

It's amazing that the PS2 has the staying power to still command a $100 price point after this many years. Poor Microsoft ditched the Xbox seemingly before the 360 was even out.

Maybe I'll pick one up soon. There are a ton of games I'd still love to play, had I the time to play them.

Sweet. I have an old, fat PS2 but I actually wouldn't mind buying the slim model for a good price. Persona 4 is freaking awesome.

I can't speak for the 80GB, but my 60GB runs the game as smooth as silk. I've still got my old PS2 (2 of them actually) if push comes to shove, but at $99 a PS2 is a pretty safe gamble. It seems like I lose more than that every time I turn on the television.

Casual gamers only interested in playing Madden and GH and RB games (minus the good DLC) may take advantage of this I guess.

Haha, for some reason I misread and thought that 2 was a 3 for like 4 seconds.
Well, that was comical.  My PS2 actually still works, so I'm good.

Hmm looks like I was right that the true successor of the Playstation brand is the PS2 not PS3.

I've got the MGS4 80gb, Persona 3 and 4 work great. I've only had one small problem with P3, while trying to save it said that no memory card was detected. I just backed out of the save menu and tried again and it worked. Apparently this happens in Odin Sphere as well but its nothing to be concerned about, just retry and it works. And like I said, its only happened once so far(I'm about 20 hours into Persona 3).

Very tempting, I can always use another DVD player and a PS2 is the only way to play Metal Gear Solid 3....and Shadow of the Colossus, Gran Turismo 4, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, Okami, Final Fantasy XII....

Lots of good PS2 exclusives I've never played. I totally need one!

Are you telling me that PS2s still cost more than $99 before now?? What the fuck?

But seriously, if you don't have one, get one. There are so many awesome classics that go for less then $10 at this point.

It was the media that was making a big deal about this. I really doubt Sony actually claimed that there was big PS3 news. They probably just said that they would be making some sort of announcement, and then rumors started flying that it was "big" "PS3" news.

Yes, that system has BC. But it's not a crapshoot. Almost everything works perfectly.

It definitely sounds like a waste to upgrade to a PS3.

Does anyone know if this price cut will happen in Europe also?  


I'm tempted to get one, I have the original machine which is too large for my liking.

... you own an X Box 360, don't you?  Because those are the ONLY people that actually think that's true.
